Collection: Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) Formation Inhibitors
Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs) Formation Inhibitors — a collection of thiamine, guanidine, and biguanide derivatives that chemically inhibit the reaction between the carbonyl groups of reducing sugars and the amine groups of proteins. This group is an important research material in studies of the formation pathways of advanced glycation end-products.
These compounds are used by metabolism researchers to study the mechanisms of the Maillard reaction and non-enzymatic glycation pathways in cell models and in vitro. Benfotiamine, aminoguanidine, and metformin are commonly used as reference or control compounds in screening experiments for activity in inhibiting the formation of glycation products.
Example products in this collection: TCI B4711 22457-89-2 Benfotiamine, TCI M2009 1115-70-4 Metformin Hydrochloride, TCI A1129 1937-19-5 Aminoguanidine Hydrochloride.
The choice of salt form (hydrochloride or free base) and the purity level of the compound should be matched to the in vitro assay protocol being used. All products are genuine Tokyo Chemical Industry (TCI) Japan products, with purity, packaging, and storage conditions listed on the page of each item.
